Welcome to the online submission manager at The Louisville Review! Submissions of previously unpublished manuscripts are invited year round. Prose submissions should be double-spaced and page numbered. Poetry (up to 5 poems) need not be double-spaced; multiple poems should be submitted in one document. Drama should appear in standard format. Our Children's Corner publishes the poetry of writers under the age of 18. If you are submitting in more than one genre, please submit documents separately. We encourage you to include a cover letter. Reply time is up to 6 months; if you haven't heard from us after 6 months, please email a query. Simultaneous submissions accepted, but please let us know as soon as possible if your work gets accepted elsewhere. Contributors receive two copies of the journal.
